This is totally unlike the usual campus fraternities where three or four
years are spent as a member on campus. In brief, the Yale senior society
system is NOT A CAMPUS FRATERNITY AT ALL. IT IS GEARED TO THE POST-GRADUATION
OUTSIDE WORLD.
From the start of our exposure of The Order it was clear that Skull & Bones
was only a segment of a conspiracy for political power.

* We apologize for the lateness of this October issue. The new material
only came to hand near press time.
"The power of the place remains unmistakable. Yale was organized. Yale
inspired a loyalty in its sons that was conspicuous and impressive. Yale
men in after life made such records that the suspicion was that even there
they were working for each other. In short Yale was exasperatingly and
mysteriously successful. To rival institutions and to academic reformers
there was something irritating and disquieting about old Yale College".
It now appears that indeed some Yale men were quietly working together in
life after Yale .
"
It also now appears that this mysterious success " has a simple explanation:
the three senior societies at Yale are meshed in a network of power and in-
fluence to promote their own members and deny outsiders.
These societies are: Skull & Bones (Russell Trust), Scroll & Key (Kingsley
Trust) and Wolfs Head (Phelps Trust).
Further, these senior societies have representati ves in yet other Yale
societies. For example: The ELIHU society catalog has this entry:
* Three
quarters of the 'inner core" is now identified.
*The additions are:
Scroll & Key - Kingsley Trust
Wolfs Head - Phelps Trust
*This leaves only one quarter to be identified.
However our
original assumption may be wrong. It may well be that each of
the senior societies comprises one third of
the inner core.
*It should be noted that all observers agree that
Scroll & Key
and Wolfs Head are subordinate, weak sister s compared
to Skull
& Bones.
Yet House never went to Yale, and we have not yet been able to
account
for the undoubted power he wielded.
We can now make a closer link between House and The Order.
In brief, the Auchincloss family, prominent behind the scenes in U.S. his-
tory is closely linked to Scroll & Key.
with the Soviet Union was Secretary of State Dean Acheson, who was William
Bundy’s father-in-law. The Bundy family is, as we have noted extensively
in previous volumes, intimately connected with Skull & Bones.
Dean Acheson was Scroll & Key and his biography reads as follows:

Acheson's son David Campion is Skull & Bones, while David Campion, Jr., is
Scroll & Key, thus perpetuating the Acheson family in the inner core of the
establishment.

We have formerly cited Vance for his partnership in the establishment law
firm Simpson, Thacher and Bartlett whose notable contribution to history
has been support of the Bolshevik Revolut i on in 1917-1919 (See this .
Conclusions
1. When we add Scroll & Key, an offshoot of Skull & Bones to the establish-
ment inner core we find numerous powerful influences can be accounted for
(we cited above Auchincloss, Acheson & Vance).
3. It seems logical to also add Wolfs Head (Phelps Trust), the third of
the Vale senior societies, to our picture of the inner core of the establishment.
4. When we equate the establishment with the three Yale senior societies
it appears that very few key establishment fiaures are outside this charmed
circle. To be true Harvard, Princeton and other Universities have made a
contribution, but the core now appears to be "Yale Power".
Some highlights:
*
Initiation ceremonies include use of numerous skulls, human
skeletons and coffins.
*
At one time Yale banned these ceremonies, but pressure from
Bonesmen on campus forced restoration.
